PAGE 1 A celebration of Marc Chagall’s art
By the 1950’s Marc Chagall was a well established and successful artist attracting significant public and private commissions. In addition to his paintings and stained glass windows, his mastery of the lithographic medium was in demand for the creation of important illustrated fine art deluxe books including the iconic Teriade production of Daphnis and Chloe (which attracts prices of up to US$300,000). Marc Chagall’s artistic career to that point was celebrated in the 1957 book ‘Chagall’ by esteemed French art writer Jacques Lassaigne. Fifteen original lithographs were created by Chagall for specific inclusion in this book. We are pleased to present this series of 15 lithographs, which are referenced and individually illustrated in volume 2 of the catalogue raisonne of Chagall’s lithographs (numbers 192‐207) edited by Andre Seurat and published by Fernand Mourlot. Marc Chagall (1887-1985)
Marc Chagall was born in Vitebsk, Russia (now in Belarus), the oldest of nine children in a close‐knit Jewish family. This period of his life, described as happy though impoverished, appears in references throughout Chagall's work. As an artist, Chagall took inspiration from Belarusian folk‐life, and portrayed many Biblical themes reflecting his Jewish heritage. He took part in the movements of the Paris art world which preceded World War I and was thus involved with avant‐garde currents. However, his work always found itself on the margins of these movements and emerging trends, including Cubism and Fauvism. Chagall became a French citizen in 1937, and after a sojourn in the United States during World War II he returned to France in 1949, working in Provence. In 1973, the Musée National Message Biblique Marc Chagall (Chagall Museum) opened in Nice, France. Chagall died at the age of 97 in Saint‐Paul de Vence, France.
